What a game at Oracle Arena between the Golden State Warriors and the Sacramento Kings on Tuesday night.
The Warriors scored 77 points in the first half alone, as they were able to hold off the pesky Kings 140-132 before 20,003 at Oracle.
Baron Davis scored 33 points and dished off nine assists, while Stephen Jackson added 20, as the Warriors stayed tied with the Denver Nuggets for the eighth and final playoff spot in the Western Conference.
As fate would have it, the Nuggets and the Warriors face each other on Thursday night at Oracle Arena.
Andris Biedrins helped Davis and Jackson out immensely, as he scored 17 points and grabbed 17 rebounds for another double-double.
Al Harrington chipped in with 17, while Monta Ellis scored 16, as the Warriors won the season series with the Kings three games to one.
The Kings were without the services of Ron Artest and Brad Miller.
Francisco Garcia tied his career high with 31 points, while Kevin Martin scored 29.
